Nrg1 is an injury-induced cardiomyocyte mitogen for the endogenous heart regeneration program in zebrafish
Heart regeneration is limited in adult mammals but occurs naturally in adult zebrafish through the activation of cardiomyocyte division. Several components of the cardiac injury microenvironment have been identified, yet no factor on its own is known to stimulate overt myocardial hyperplasia in a ma...
